R7800 / AC2600 antenna replacement

One of the four antennas just broke and the wire got torn.  My router is R7800 / AC2600 Nighthawk X4S.  Where can I order a replacement?  I have been trying Netgear's (800) number but I cannot even talk to somebody to place an order because my warranty ran out.  Thank you in advance.

    Netgear doesn't sell replacment antennas but you can find many on amazon/ebay. Looks to be a standard rp-sma connector.

    Please post about this here for your model router:

    Good Luck.

  • I replaced my antennae’s with two 9db and one 5db antenna on my r7000. Worked good
